I have a friend who always downloads the smallest (by file size) copy of any video he can find. He has a 75" 4k TV, 5.1 surround speakers, the whole setup but he downloads 720p in stereo almost exclusively. He says he just doesn't care about the video or audio quality. It blows my mind, but some people are just weird.

Edit: Also, Paul is just a funny movie, if you're into goofy movie references.

Wait till you find out about the people who play shooters at literally the lowest quality possible AND 30fps

Edit: from my friend who does this, he likes the idea of using as little power as possible

A lot of pros play shooters at low just to get more fps.

I’m talking about what the YouTuber LowSpecGamer used to do. Running fallout 4 on a fire stick type stuff.
